Ex-CEO of Opera Launches Vivaldi Browser

Opers Software has always had a fairly sizeable and loyal fan base. The decades old browser never quite went mainstream, at least not on the desktop, but it attracted droves of power users thanks to its innovative streak and host of unique features. However, with its switch to the Chromium engine, Opera ditched almost everything that made it unique, and in the process disappointed most of its power users. It has gone from being a cutting-edge internet suite to a light-weight Chrome shell. There are still many users who use Opera 12 – released over two years ago, as their daily driver. The good news for all of them is that Jon Von Tetzchner – Opera’s co-founder and Ex-CEO has announced his next venture, and he is not giving up on browsers.

Vivaldi is a brand new browser from the very same people who brought to you Opera. Like the current Opera browser, it will be using Google’s Blink rendering engine. However, unlike the current Opera browser, Vivaldi aims to bring back most of the good stuff from Opera 12. The user interface of Vivaldi has been built using web technologies like Node.js, and Browserify. The first technical preview was released today with five key features:

ü  Quick Commands: This is similar to Launchy on Windows or Spotlight on Mac. It offers a quick and easy way to navigate through tabs, search through history, change settings, and a bunch of other stuff with just the keyboard.

ü  Panels: Panels used to be one of the many unique features in Opera, and it makes a comeback in Vivaldi. Right now the Panel provides quick access to bookmarks, downloads, and notes. In the future, you will also be able to access your mail and contacts from this section. Opera’s Notes feature has been improved, and now supports webpage screenshots.

ü  Speed Dials: Opera introduced speed dials – visual bookmarks that are quickly and easily accessible, which are now present in all major browser in some form or the other. Hence, it’s hardly a surprise that Vivaldi also has speed dials. However, unlike most other implementations, Vivaldi supports folders in Speed Dials and you can also quickly open up your browsing history and bookmarks.

ü  Intuitive UI: Vivaldi is bright and colourful, yet simple. The URL bar changes its colour automatically based on the website that you are currently viewing, and hovering over a tab opens a thumbnail preview. Any tab that you close can be restored from the trash can.

Prynt is the First Instant Camera Case for Smartphones, Prints Pictures in Seconds

The dizzying growth of the smartphone market has contributed to the spread of the digital photography, but just like any other technological advances, it has been done with compromises. And one of them is the death of good old printed pictures. I think you’ll agree with me that there’s no way for a digital picture to have the same impact as a physical one that you can hold in your hand.

If you are familiar with Polaroid cameras, then this will seem very simple to operate. You just plug the smartphone into the case, snap or take an existent picture and then just print! The device comes with its own battery, works offline, doesn’t require a Bluetooth connection and even no ink. It is available in white, pink or blue colors and currently sells for a limited price of $99.

A drawback is that each case holds only 10 sheets of paper, but refills are available through the app, making this task quite easy. You can get one pack of photos containing 10 sheets with each Prynt Case reward on Kick starter. Also, for every $25 you add to your pledge, you will get 50 extra sheets.

But printing pictures isn’t the single thing this useful gadget can make. When you are posing for a photo, the app records a short video and stores it in the cloud. So, when you will hold your phone over the printed image, the app will automatically scan and recognize it, showing a short movie on screen in augmented reality.
